When eighteen year-old Chantal first meets the half-starved tramp who calls himself Martin, she is touring Hungary with a circus company as one of the Flying Gallettis, and prefers to forget every detail of her unhappy early years in faraway England. But a train of events is started which will bring her back to her destiny and to the unravelling of many mysteries that surround her life.
Who is this Martin, who speaks like an English gentleman and looks like a tinker? Why is he in Hungary at all? Whose powerful malice has pursued her since childhood, and why? Who indeed is she?
Chantals wilfulness and courage wins hearts but brings trouble upon her wherever she goes. From the warm, bustling atmosphere of a travelling circus to the cold correctness of English country house society, Chantal must finally unravel the truths of her life.
